    the 1964 dimes had 2 types of the #9
    One was blunt and the other was more of a point!!

    I’ve been around long enough to see enough of these to make me take them with a sleepy response. These are modern coin promotions to get your money. Here today; gone tomorrow.

    Even the 1960 small date cent in Proof does not amount to much now. They were $50, now a lot less.

In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible.

    Yes, they had obverse die variety ODV-010 and ODV-011 both for that year. http://varietyvista.com/07 Roosevelt Dimes/Obverse Design Varieties.htm

    Sharp 9

    Rounded 9
